The definition of "Volver" is "To Return," and the theme of being haunted by the dead is carried out in this story by two sisters, Raimunda (Penelope Cruz) and Sole (Lola Duenas), who lost their parents in a fire years ago in La Mancha. Raimunda and Sole now live in Madrid but return to La Mancha regularly to visit their Aunt Paula (Chus Lampreave). After Aunt Paula dies, Sole learns that their mother, Irene (Carmen Maura), has been hiding with her sister, and, with the loss of Paula, the past returns with more than a few twists and turns. Penelope Cruz received a Best Actress Oscar nomination.
